West towards the East: Vienna meets Sarajevo

On show in Vienna at the architecture centre until the end of the month is a project born out of a student exchange between Vienna University and the faculty of architecture in Sarejevo. The aim? To motivate students from the two cities to establish a dialogue and initiate work which goes beyond national confines.

A group of Viennese students put together a guide to architecture in the Bosnian capital paying particular attention to the development of new housing models. Mixed teams (Austrian and Bosnian) then attempted to develop an innovation building plan for houses damaged during the war, on an area covering 6000 square metres.

The experimental approach is reflected also in the design of the exhibition: inside an “architecture café” – symbolising the relationship between different cultural spheres – the projects are presented in the form of a newspaper, to read whilst relaxing at a table and chatting about architecture. The exhibition is a travelling one and after Vienna moves to Sarajevo.
